SUFFERED BY WHEAT VALUES ON MARKET Decrease of Domestic Winter, Wheat Acreage Smaller Than Expected Chicago, Dec. 20.—(#)—Dominated largely by government figures show- ing that decrease of domestic winter expected, wheat values suffered sud- den. breaks today. deliveries, however, were sustained by farm board allies at a minimum of effort, there being now but ‘ittle g n- eral trade in old crop months Add-} ing to weakness of July wheat prices was an Argentine official report esti- mating the 1930 wheat yield of Ar- gentina as 271,000,000 ushels against 138,000,000 bushels last year.

Oats followed the course of other cereais. Provisions continued to reflect ae- mi of lard to fill December contracts, Active commission selling went hand in hand with downturns of corn prices.

The weekly mercantile 1eports showed little change in the trend of holiday trade. Reports indicate con- ditions are somewhat spotty. Price reductions have been an important jStimulus. There was again scattered pressure against the grain markets. e fur- ther drop in commodity prices has ‘caused some further discouragement, but the annalist points out that a fresh decline in commodities is a characteristic of the ending of a pe- {tlod of depression.

EXTRA SESSION NOT Together Except “in Emergency Washington, Dec. 20.—7)—Presi- | dent Hoover was said at the white house today to have no intention of calling an extra session of the senate to consider the world court. The only thing that would cause him to call an extra session of con- Bress, would be the failure of some of the important appropriation bills to be enacted, Confronted with perplexing prob- lems in disposing of the regular busi- ness before the end of this session on March 4, senate Republican leaders had privately expressed worry over suggestions the president may call a adherence to the court, Republicans of the senate foreign relations committee, including friend and foe of the court, voted this week to defer consideration of this question until next December.

Miss Tofflemire obliged—partially. She dropped the cash drawer just as Orr reached for it. Orr stooped to scoop up the cash and the cashier went into action. She hurdied the oesk and landed on Orr's neck, on which she clamped a hold that he could not break. When Orr was thoroughly subdued Miss Tofflemier entrusted him to the care of several customers and called po- lice. “I'm glad you fellows were here,” Orr told his guards. “She might have killed me.” Grand Forks Student Wins Extra Election Grand Forks, N.
